How to give directions

In order to give directions you should follow these instructions:

Be as simple as possible
Start giving directions with GO STRAIGHT + a name of a street: e.g.: Go straight Alberdi street
Then use the expression Up to (hasta) + the name of a street e.g. : up to Caseros street
After that use : then + turn right or left. e.g.: then turn left
Use the verb WALK + number of blocks (número de cuadras) e.g. Walk two blocks
Finish directions with the place a tourist wants to get. For example: San Franciso church is on the corner of…

Example: From Alberdi and Rioja to Presidente Hotel:
Go straight Alberdi street up to Belgrano avenue. Then turn right and walk two blocks and a half. Presidente hotel is on you right in the middle of the block.
